Episode #14 – Solo7 (When’s Trick or Treat? — People Pleasing and Giving Grace)


Listen Later

Shadyside can’t pick a Halloween date (😂), and that reminds me: you can’t please everyone. In this solo I get real about a weekend slip, the emotional hangover that followed, and why I’m restarting 75 Hard to realign with the man I love being.


We talk cognitive dissonance, micro-momentum, and GRACE —  and a community challenge to keep me accountable.

Local love: Vote Meintel for mayor, Parr & Haswell for council, and write in Bob Dorris. No paid ads here — just respect.

75 Hard Basics: clean meals • 2 workouts (1 outside) • 1 gallon water • 10 pages • daily selfie • no alcohol.

Grab the on-screen checklist graphic and run it with me.

If this helped, share it with someone sitting in that same emotional fog.


Chapters below + resources.

Resources / Verses (Word of the Day: GRACE):

  • Ephesians 2:8–9 • Romans 6:14 • Hebrews 4:16

    If alcohol is hurting your life, consider talking to someone you trust or a local support group.
